Hillary Clinton’s campaign manager, Robby Mook, said experts claim that Russian state hackers behind the publication: “Experts say that the Russians are now releasing these emails to help Donald Trump I do not think it’s a coincidence that they are published on. eve of the Democratic convention. ”

The hacking of a server of the Democratic National Committee, the main governing body of the US Democratic Party, was previously linked to Russian intelligence, the US security Crowd Strike. That company examined the hack after discovering suspicious Internet traffic and shut the hackers out. Soon after the claim of a hacker appeared with the alias Guccifer 2.0 that he will be behind the attack and simply had had access to the server from the summer of 2015.

Crowd Strike maintains its claim that the Russians are behind the attack and call Guccifer 2.0 a diversion attempt. Among other metadata to declassified documents, using a Russian style of smiley and the timing of the appearance of the publication of the documents and Guccifer 2.0 would indicate involvement of Russia, describes Motherboard.
